Maybe for a while, but last I heard even though they were bigger, it was still tough. I really don't know.
It's tough to make business decisions - particularly for a widow - when you're in mourning, unfamiliar with the business, and alone. It's a noble gesture to continue the legacy - but immediately following John's passing, was the best opportunity to turn that name, with the prestige and the established accounts attached, into a pretty fair amount of money - in my opinion.
